people keep saying do away with meta, but give no "replacement" move, or ideas for a new one. I'm fine with doing away with meta, that doesnt bother me. but i'm not fine with just having no replacement move. so lets hope blizzard, if they do remove it, gives us something in exchange that works as a burst CD.
